The effect of jet flow pulsing and blowing ratio on a jet in cross flow has been investigated. Preliminary jet flow studies were performed without cross flow and an extensive study of jet with cross flow was done for a total of nine test cases. The effect of velocities ratios...

BACKGROUND: Interventions to promote physical activity (PA) in children attending family child care homes (FCCHs) require valid, yet practical, measurement tools. The aim of this study was to assess the validity of two proxy report instruments designed to measure PA in children attending FCCHs. METHODS: A sample of 37 FCCH...

Upriver movements were determined for Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha returning to the Yukon River, a large, virtually pristine river basin. These returns have declined dramatically since the late 1990s, and information is needed to better manage the run and facilitate conservation efforts. A total of 2,860 fish were radio tagged...
In small forested streams, changes in age and structure of riparian vegetation covering the stream have been shown to directly influence the amount of light reaching the stream benthos. Light has the potential to impact in-stream resources that support secondary production through constraints on primary productivity. The influence of landscape...
Assessing the risk from exposure to a chemical mixture in the environment can seem prohibitively challenging. Most components of the mixture are not readily identifiable, chemicals may interact to cause other-than-additive toxicity, and the number of potential combinations of environmental contaminants is enormous. These challenges can make it seem impossible...
